hi russ........

yeah... still lurking about

SJ-50, regular 9x7, Viper ...... figure around 135-140 range. With the 60LX,maybe another 5 on top of that.

Perhaps slightly more with a 8.8x8.5 prop or 8.5x7.5 on the 60LX.

eewwwww

SJ50 should have you well up over 120. TT40 (stock)can get a viper up to 115

Try the 9x6 on the SJ-50 ....... get the rpm up a bunch.

engines are on the money.......

you may want to try the D-1 props .... the 8.8x8.5 is a great place to start
